    Yeah, verbing properties is a great idea, but it's too hard to create a verb
    for each property, and then request that the programmers /use/ the verb
    instead of the property.  On paradigm, there is a $root_class:_* which
    simply returns the property, and can be overridden (and often is) on any
    child.  But still the problem remains, the Programmers/Wizards, including
    myself, *never* use obj:_prop().

    It could just be because everyone knows I have a program that automagically
    converts them :)
